ROCKFORD, Ailing. (WTVO) — Three Rockford space organizations got here collectively to throw a free bowling occasion to honor those that served within the Vietnam Battle.
Aiding Palms Rockford, Vietnam Veterans of America and Don Carter put collectively the occasion. Veterans in attendance obtained free bowling and a free lunch.
One organizer believes the occasion was an awesome likelihood for veterans to satisfy one another.
“An enormous portion of our shoppers are veterans, so we encourage our personal shoppers to come back out for the day, even when they aren’t capable of bowl or don’t wanna bowl,” stated Aiding Palms’ Director of Enterprise Growth Janine Idstein. “However simply to come back and meet different veterans and have a enjoyable afternoon that’s free to them. So, they get free lunch, they get free bowling. It’s a great day.”
Vietnam Battle Veterans Day kicks off on Saturday.
